"Critics of technology fantasize about an era before the internet. But we can’t move backwards: these stunningly powerful systems need to be reincorporated within a more positive-sum framework."

Onward!

Great article Tom. I can definitely relate to "my skillset was both meaningless and useless" after 20 years on the buy-side :)

I'll be pondering this quote for awhile.

Great article! and thanks for generously sharing your transition experience with me. Its slow going but sticking to the process.

Great stuff as always Tom. Really resonate with the idea that you shouldn’t throw the baby out of the bathwater when moving stages. Something I’ve been thinking a lot about while transitioning away from law.
